Monica Ruffo // X1 Accelerator

Huge shout-out to serial entrepreneur Monica Ruffo for sharing with our McGill Dobson Centre for Entrepreneurship's X-1 Accelerator cohort!

CoLab Education had the privilege of learning from Monica's invaluable presentation. We learned lots and reflected on how her insights align perfectly with our vision:

✏️ Embrace learning and mistakes. As we develop CoLab, we're committed to iterating based on real teacher feedback...that we don't shy away from asking for!

✏️ Cash is oxygen. We're bootstrapping carefully, negotiating smartly, and strategically allocating resources to fuel our journey.

✏️ Flexibility is crucial. We're ready to pivot and seize new opportunities in the ever-evolving edtech landscape.

✏️ Financial mastery is non-negotiable. We're building robust, dynamic financial models to guide our decisions.

✏️ Choose investors wisely. As we explore funding options, we're seeking partners who align with our mission to empower educators.

✏️ Branding is everything. We're crafting a brand that resonates with teachers and reflects our commitment to collaboration. What do you think of our new Instagram presence? 👀 https://lnkd.in/gPxwAddP 👀

Monica's wisdom strengthens CoLab's approach to building a lean, adaptable startup that truly meets educators' needs.

Thank you McGill Dobson Centre for Entrepreneurship X-1 Accelerator for connecting CoLab Education with amazing mentors!
